Abstract
The internet has made it easier for new words and phrases to enter the language of communication. Neologisms are essential to a language because they keep it modern. The discussion and analysis of English neologisms from the social media platforms TikTok and Twitter are the main goals of this thesis. On social media platforms, abbreviations, clipping, compounding, blending, coinage, and semantic shift are the most frequently used word formation processes. The major motivation for using neologisms, according to the participants, was their efficacy in communicating ideas.
Abstract (croatian)
Internet je olakšao ulazak novih riječi i fraza u jezik komunikacije. Neologizmi su ključni za jezik jer ga održavaju modernim. Rasprava i analiza engleskih neologizama s platformi društvenih mreža TikTok i Twitter glavni su ciljevi ovog diplomskog rada. Skraćivanje, slaganje, srastanje, novotvorenice i semantički neologizmi najčešće su korišteni procesi tvorbe riječi na društvenim mrežama Twitter i TikTok. Sudionicima je glavna motivacija za korištenje neologizama bila njihova učinkovitost u prenošenju ideja.
